S-Mite

Expansive pressure crushes rock and concrete safely and quietly
The silent demolition agent "S-Mite" utilizes the hydration reaction that takes place when it is mixed with water. The expansive pressure generated from the reaction causes rock and concrete to crack into pieces.
Since "S-Mite" permits the demolition of rock or concrete safely and without much vibration and noise, it can be effectively used at sites where dynamite or other explosives cannot be used such as residential areas where noise and vibration pose a problem.
